During February Product Design students (2nd year) are showing their projects from the course Material Driven Design at Form/Design Center in Malmö.
The work has been divided into three main groups:
DIY, Do-It-Yourself: this group has explored new uses for textile residues that had otherwise ended up in landfills in the Global South.
CIY, Cook-It-Yourself: this group has focused on producing plastics/biopolymers from renewable raw materials found in most kitchens.
GIY, Grow-It-Yourself: in order to find new areas of application, this group has cultivated and developed scoby, a yeast and bacterial culture normally used to produce kombucha.
Skånska dagbladet visited and wrote about the inauguration.
The exhibition is open until February 25th.
